How can you prove the mechanical nature of sound by a simple experiment

Physics
1 answer:
Kruka [31]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

That is, mechanical waves cannot travel through a vacuum. This feature of mechanical waves is often demonstrated in a Physics class. A ringing bell is placed in a jar and air inside the jar is evacuated. Once air is removed from the jar, the sound of the ringing bell can no longer be heard.

Along a horizontal snow-covered track, a sled, of mass m = 105 kg, slides by the action of a horizontal force of 230 N. The coef
Andrew [12]

Answer:

Explanation:

The only thing I can figure you need here is the accleration of the sled. The equation we need to find this is Newton's Second Law that says that sum of the forces acting on an object is equal to the object's mass times its acceleration. For us, that looks like this because of the friction working against the sled:

F - f = ma but of course it's much more involved than that simple equation! We have the F value as 230 N, and we have the mass as 105, but we do not have the frictional force, f, and we need it to solve for a in the above equation. We know that

f = μF_n where μ is the coefficient of friction, and F_n is the normal force, aka weight of the object. We will use the coefficient of friction and find the weight in order to fill in for f:

F_n=mg so

F_n=(105)(9.8) so the weight of the sled is

F_n= 1.0 × 10³ with the correct number of sig dig there. Now to find f:

f = (.025)(1.0 × 10³) so

f = 25 to the correct number of sig fig. Now on to our "real" equation:

F - f = ma and

230 - 25 = 105a. We have to do the subtraction first, round, and then divide since the rules for addition and subtraction are different from the rules for dividing and multiplying.

230 - 25 will round to the tens place giving us 210. Then

210 = 105a. 210 has 2 sig figs in it while 105 has 3, so we will divide and round to 2 sig fig:

a = 2.0 m/sec²

What does Newton's third law describe?
Dennis_Churaev [7]
A. Equal and opposite forces

Explanation:
History law states that for every action (force) in nature there is an equal and opposite reaction. In other words, if object A exerts a force on object B, then object B also exert an equal and opposite force on object A

You have a length of tubing that is closed at one end. You cut the tubing into two pieces of unequal length, giving you a tube o
umka21 [38]

Answer:

The funda mental frequency of the original tube is 182Hz.

Explanation:

See the attachment for the calculation steps.

In order to calculate the fundamental frequency of the original closed tube we need to find the length of the tube which is equal to the sum of the lengths of the two new tubes.

For closed tubes

f = nv/4L (n = 1, 3, 5,...n)

f = nv/2L (n = 1, 2, 3,...n)

The details of calculation can be found below in the attachment.
